We must protect Bush from the soft bigotry of low expectations
Particularly for the debate on Thursday. He should be tested thoroughly, and his performance measured against the highest standards.

Anything else would be unfair, it would be the soft bigotry of low expectations. We should expect only the very best performance, nay, demand it.

Are you with me or against me?

3. Fucks News has them already lined up
Someone who's debated Kerry about a dozen times, and a guy who debated Bush once. They don't even try to hide thier bias. It's bigotry, I tell ya, bigotry.

4. These people are so paranoid
as part of the debate agreement, the moderators have to sign off.

These people don t do anything without loyalty oaths.

5. One wonders what value a loyalty oath is, signed under coercion.
Surely they don't think the oaths have any value.

7. I'm not worried, I'm just pointing out that his rhetoric can be applied
...to his own expectations. He says he is a master of lowered expectation, and we need to counter that with something. I think using his own propaganda against him is the way to go.
